Lyrics

Just a young gun with a quick fuse, I was up tight, want to let loose.

I was dream ing of big ger things and want to leave my own life be hind.

Not a yes sir, not a fol low er.

Fit the box, fit the mold, have a seat in the (F)foy er, take a num ber.

I was light ning be fore the thun der, thun der.

(C)Thun der, thun der, thun, thun der, thu thu thun der, thun der.

(Am)Thun der, thun der, thun, (F)thun der, thu thu thun der, thun der.

(C)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der.

(Am)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der, thun der.

(C)Thun der.

Thun der.

Kids were laugh ing in my class es while I was schem ing for the mass es.

(F)“Who do you think you are

dream ing ’bout be ing a big star?”

You say you’re bas ic, you say you’re eas y, you’re al ways rid ing in the back seat.

Now I’m smil ing from the stage while you are clap ping in the nose bleeds.

(CN.C.)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der, thun der.

(C)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der, thun der.

(Am)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der, thun der.

(C)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der, thun der.

(Am)Thun der, feel the thun der,

light ning and the thun der, thun der.
